Bug Description

Using Ubuntu 14.04 final beta. Intermittently, when I lock the screen then unlock after a period of time the screen locks again by itself and I must unlock one more time.

To date I haven't found a pattern for when this happens other than it seems to occur when the computer has been locked for several minutes. The computer has not been suspended.

Steps:
1. Lock screen
2. Leave locked for several minutes
3. Login to unlock

Screen refreshes to the desktop. Then all of a sudden the screen locks itself and I must re-enter my password and unlock the screen yet again. After that the system is stable and I can continue to work.

Can you check the unity version are you running? Check also gnome-screensaver one.
